Total Volume	2 1/2 cups	1 1/4 cup	~300 ml
Chili Powder	1 cup	1/2 cup	120 ml
Paprika	3/4 cup	1/4 cup + 2 tblsp	90 ml
Salt	2 tblsp	1 tblsp	15 ml

Procedure

Total volume: See Table,
Approximate prep time: 15mins (if you know where all your spices are…)
Cook Time: None

Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together.

I use a whisk to mix the ingredients. Keep some of the mixture in a shaker bottle for spicing up bland dishes and especially for putting on popcorn (with butter and salt).

Ultimate Parmesan-Pepper Popcorn! Butter + salt + berbere spice mix + prepared grated parmesan (from a jar).

Notes

Whether you use it for a stew or popcorn, you will most likely want more salt, but different amounts for each application. For a stew, a shaker bottle would take too long. The amount you add will be dependent on the pot size, but I suggest starting with a full tablespoon for a medium pot, then adding more until you get enough flavor.
